As a proponent of "edutainment," you might be interested to know that the original concept of "Trains Planes and Automobiles" came when I asked myself the question, "why are American kids so lacking in geography?" Although not billed as an "educational" or "learning game" (because it would be the stink of death), it's my hope that people who play will inadvertently learn a little geography in the process.<br /><br />Kathy, thanks as always for all your support! As I mention in the acknowledgments, "with you, my miles of happiness are unlimited!"<br /><br />Kerry, thanks so much. I hope you get a chance to play it, because I think you'll like it. By the way, I love your "playground" blog post. I've been on the merry-go-round and found myself stuck going faster than I could handle - more than a few times. Sometimes you have to stop and take time out to play a game...Paul Owenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02260814589584723033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4535367891237919312.post-24352488395538829802011-09-15T23:40:08.167-04:002011-09-15T23:40:08.167-04:00Best of luck Paul.

I've never known anyone who designs board games! Of course, we don't know each other but interspace is close enough. Congrats nonetheless. I always thought it would be cool to design games like this.
